When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular aging, cancer, ...

Deep in coastal mangroves and even inside our own mouths, biologists are finding that DNA does not always sit in a simple ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have decoded the nuclear genome of Amorphochlora amoebiformis, a unicellular marine alga ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

Humans have it. So does Drosophila. But not yeast. That "it" is a small pause at the start of gene activity—a brief molecular halt that may have helped life evolve from simple cells to complex animals ...

Scientists have discovered a single-celled organism in the hot springs of Lassen Volcanic National Park, which is not only ...

Primases are essential components of the DNA replication apparatus in every organism. They catalyze the synthesis of oligoribonucleotides on single-stranded DNA, which subsequently serve as primers ...

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.

Through a recent notice, the Undergraduate Medical Education Board (UGMEB) of the National Medical Commission (NMC) has ...

The replisome is a large protein complex that carries out DNA replication, starting at the replication origin. It contains several enzymatic activities, such as helicase, primase and DNA polymerase ...

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has released the official NEET UG 2026 syllabus, outlining the topics to be covered in ...
